WOOLLENS.— STKIPED.

The three specimens (Nos. 646, 647, and 656) included in the next Table afford
examples of patterns in vogue at Sikkim, as well as in Nepal and Thibet.

The group (44) at top of Plate VII.,* facing next page, shows the manner in which
the fabric is made up for wear in Sikkim—the similarity to the Scotch kilt is very obvious.

Figures 46 and 47 in the same Plate illustrate the way in which the Cumblee is
worn in the cold weather for the protection of the head and shoulders. Fig. 48 shows
a scanty woollen garment in the made-up form, and No. 43, with standing figure in group 49,
illustrate the wearing of a large wrapper and thick hooded cloak of felt, a material in
common use in many parts of High Asia, to which reference has now to be made.

* This Plate, on account of our having, after its execution, chosen to deal first with the Cashmere Shawls,
is made to follow, instead of precede, PI. VIII.
